>be me, senior in HS >graduation project is required, and it has to be somehow related to your junior paper >paper was on network security >have a brilliant idea >build an EMP-proof fabric that you can simply attach to your electronics, and it'll shield it against semi-powerful EMPs >talk with my project mentor on it >he's a computer engineer at Coca-Cola that used to work for the state government >he says we can totally do it, we have the supplies and the money >create a blueprint for the fabric >basically a 1/16 in. fabric made of copper, nanosilver, and cotton >put that aside for now >plan a prototype for the generator >after all, we have to test the fabric against something >of course it was more advanced, but it was basically three car batteries, a board, a transformer, some condensers, and two modified cavity magnetrons >total supplies cost: ~$120 let me cont.

>>1150405 >about to build it >mom has the idea that we should contact local police before testing it in the field we were going to use it at >we go to the sheriff's office >they refer us to the chief of the bomb squad for info >the guy is a marine veteran, he's also pretty huge >ask him if it's ok to test it in the field provided we use radiation shielding to vulnerable areas >show him the blueprints >"Yeah, it doesn't seem like it could really do anything too bad, especially with protection in place. I'll refer you to my man in Homeland Security, he'll talk to you about this soon." >do some research, find the number for my local agency >ask if i could talk to someone about the project, after all it's for the greater good in the end >they said they'd get back to me soon will cont.

>he hands me his card, tells me if I have any further questions after the interview to contact him >he tells me he's already talked about this to my English teacher and principal >he'd like to hear about my project from the source >somehow remain calm physically >freaking out inside >talk to him about the purpose of my project >he thinks it's pretty neat >we talk about the device i was going to build >tell him that unless i use it for malicious intent, it's perfectly legal to build >ask him if i am allowed to test it in an open area with proper protection >he smiles >he tells me how dangerous this is >"first of all, the modifications you'll be making with the magnetrons has like a 90% possibility of releasing radioactive material in the area. assuming you have protection for this, it's still extremely dangerous to be working with that amount of electricity." >we discuss it further >i bring up again that i have a project alt plan, but i really have my heart set on this >everyone in the room agrees that this project has lots of potential, but it's dangerous nonetheless >i ask him again if it's legal >"There's not really any solid federal restrictions on the use of EMP devices (mostly because lots of devices naturally give of weak EMPs), so i won't tell you if you can do it or not, that's up to you, because it's technically legal. However, you'll be charged with any damages caused by the device". >he reminds me that although the device is powerful enough to bypass military-grade EMP protection, and that my fabric can potentially protect devices against this, it still has a range of about 2 miles, even with protection cont.

I'm extremely proficient in computers, and have even been reporting cyber issues in the county school system." >he tells me that's a felony >"Actually, i was given written permission by the IT director at the school i'm at, as well as approval from the county IT director." >he's visibly stunned >he asks me what i've found so far >i pull up a real-time list of all the usernames, emails, passwords, home addresses, names, and payroll directories of all high school staff >he tells me to delete that info >tell him i can't, it's on the network, and that deleting it also deletes it for the admin staff >tell him that i already reported the bug, and that we're getting sidetracked >the agent asks the VP if he approves of the project cont.
